Invasive Species
Having grown up in south Alabama, I am very familiar with the destructive force called kudzu. Left unchecked, it chokes out anything in it's path. It also provides a home to pesky rodents and snakes. It would have been wise to compare the environments of where it came from to where they were taking it. I had never heard of the overpopulation of rabbits in Australia. One thing that stood out to me was the cost of controlling something that should have never been allowed to get out of control. Stink bugs are the bane of my existence. I don't care that they don't bite or don't eat clothing, they are plain disgusting. Quite honestly, I can wash the stink out of my garbage can but I can't wash the stink out of the stink bug. It's great that skunks eat stink bugs, but unfortunately I really don't want a skunk hanging around my house. The dryer sheet idea is definitely worth a shot. At this point I'll try anything to get rid of those things.
